“Southeast Asia is one of the key markets for the brand to grow,” said Paul Harris, the British luxury automaker’s Asia-Pacific manager.
While the region’s markets do not shine with high sales volumes yet, the Briton remains optimistic.
“Dynamic and exciting would be the words I would describe them with. And I don’t see that changing for a very long period of time because they are still in an evolution phase.
Last year, Rolls-Royce sold a record 3,630 cars worldwide, with between 5% and 7% of them being delivered to Asean member states.
Singapore is the largest market, followed by Indonesia. Harris expects sales to increase in line with regional economic growth.
